I'm probably not the best one to answer this, because I only estimate.  My answer is usually in days and/or weeks.  Maybe you could get one of those electric timers (kitchen section.)  My mom's has a start/stop button and can time multiple things.  I'm think some of them accumulate time.

If anyone comes up with a good way to "measure" crochet time, please share it with us!  I'd like to know how long it takes to makes something...or would I?

There are several "Project Timer" apps for cell phones that are free. I'm sure some are better than others.

I too use a day & weeks vs logging time when someone says can you make me a baby sweater(1 day to make) due to working weekends (Saturday to Tuesday) I will say I can do it by Tuesday if they ask on Thursday & that way if I am done Sunday I can give early
